(KTLA) — One lucky Southern Californian is the state’s newest lottery winner after numbers for the $464 million Mega Millions jackpot were drawn Friday night.

The winning numbers were 22, 38, 48, 51, 61 and the Megaball number was 5. The Megaplier was 3X.

One SoCal ticket matched five numbers and will take home $1,016,356. The winning ticket was sold at Pavilions Place supermarket located at 21181 Newport Coast Drive in Newport Beach.
